Coach Bus Prices: How Much Does a Temecula Coach Bus Rental Cost?

In general, you can expect to pay between $155 and $295+ per hour to rent a coach bus in Temecula. If you need the bus for a full day (about 8-12 hours), the price will be between $1,900 and $3,800+. For multi-day trips, most companies charge by the day, with rates ranging from $2,250 to $3,800+ per day. These prices are just averages—your actual quote may be higher or lower depending on the details of your trip. For example, if you’re traveling during peak season (spring and summer), you may pay more than if you’re traveling in the off-season (fall and winter). Similarly, if you’re going to a popular destination like Pechanga Resort Casino or Old Town Temecula, you may pay more than if you’re going to a less crowded area. The best way to get an accurate quote is to contact us with your itinerary and let us know exactly what you need.

There are several factors that can influence the price of your coach bus rental in Temecula. Here are some of the most important ones:

• Time of year: Bus rental prices are highest during peak season, which in Temecula is typically from April to October. This is when schools are in session, wedding season is in full swing, and tourism is at its peak. If you’re planning a trip during this time, be prepared to pay more. Conversely, prices are lower during the winter months, when demand is lower.
• Trip duration: The longer you need the bus, the more it will cost. Most companies have a minimum rental period of 4-5 hours, but you can rent a bus for as long as you need. If you’re doing an overnight or multi-day trip, you’ll be charged by the day. Keep in mind that you’ll also be responsible for providing accommodations for your driver if your trip requires an overnight stay. Your driver must have 8 hours off for every 10 hours of driving or 15 hours on duty, so you’ll need to budget for a hotel room.
• Distance traveled: The farther you travel, the more expensive your rental will be. This is because you’ll need to pay for fuel, tolls, and wear and tear on the vehicle. If you’re staying local (within Temecula or Riverside County), your quote will likely be lower than if you’re traveling to Los Angeles, San Diego, or Las Vegas.
• Type of bus: Larger buses with more amenities (like WiFi, power outlets, restrooms, and TVs) will cost more than smaller, more basic models. For example, a 56-passenger motorcoach will be more expensive than a 25-passenger minibus. If you have specific requests—like a brand-new model or a bus wrapped with custom graphics—expect to pay a premium.
• Day of the week: Weekend rentals (Friday-Sunday) are generally more expensive than weekday rentals (Monday-Thursday). This is especially true for weddings, concerts, and sporting events, which usually take place on weekends.
• Special events: If you’re booking a bus for a major event—like a music festival at Galway Downs, a wine tour during Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival, or a Chargers game at SoFi Stadium—prices may be higher due to increased demand. It’s a good idea to book as early as possible to lock in the best rate.

In addition to these factors, there are a few other costs to consider. Most companies require a deposit to reserve your bus, with the balance due before your trip. Gratuity for your driver is not always included in your quote; it’s customary to tip 10-20% of the total cost. You’ll also be responsible for any parking fees, permits, or entrance fees required at your destination. For example, if you’re visiting a winery that charges for bus parking, or a state park that requires an entrance fee, those costs are on you. Finally, if your group leaves a mess that requires extra cleaning, or causes any damage to the bus, you may be charged additional fees.
